So...I got in my first and hopefully last car accident on Thursday. It was probably the scariest day of my life! Here's the story: My coworker and I were in Buffalo heading to clean a house. We had NO idea where we were and we had no clue about the roads. As we are driving along, BANG! A Ford Explorer rammed into the back drivers side door and spun us around so the back passenger door hit a pole. My coworker had a ran a stop sign. My wrist hurts from the air bag, my chest hurts from the seat belt, and my head hurts from hitting the window. Thank God there was no blood or I would have freaked out more. I started crying hysterically and freaking out. 2 windows broke and glass went flying into my hair. After the cops came and we got out of the vehicle, we called our boss Ray. He came and got us and took us to the ER. I was still crying and freaking out so I don't even know what went on there. All I know is that I have a follow up appointment this week. Now I know its my coworkers fault so I don't want to get mean about it, but why wasn't she paying closer attention to her surroundings. I was looking in our book for the directions when we were driving. Anywho, I am just glad that her and I both alright. My pain comes and goes in my wrist. My head is a constant throb but I can get used to that. I was hesitant to tell my parents at first since it happened the day before they left for Mexico. But I called my dad first and he was relieved that it didn't happen in my car. Then he told me I need to rest a lot. Then he brought up getting a lawyer. We will see about that. My ma called me later that day to make sure I was ok and asked if they should cancel their vacation. Of course I said hell no. I wasn't going to let my deal get in the way of their long awaited vacation. I just cant believe that it took 22 years to get the shit scared out of me and honestly, see my life flash by. It was just weird. I am sure everything will be fine and workers comp will take care of it all.
Anyway, the kitty is doing great. He really loves to cuddle with Loren in the rocker. It is so cute! And Buddy and him play together all the time. Bubba just lays in his "room" and watches everything happen. I am so glad that we saved him! And he is going to have so much fun at my parents house! He will be able to explore their 3 level home and the nooks and crannies! Dad has wanted another cat since Loren jinxed the last one and it got ran over. That was pretty weird; calling my parents while they are in Kansas for a wedding and informing them that I found their cat dead on the Highway 15 exit ramp. OOPS! Guess I should have watched her a little bit closer huh?!

Good Question!
I got this email a while ago from my Aunt Angie. It's titled "Questions To Ponder". I had to share!
Can you cry under water?
Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?

Yay Giants!
Loren is extremely excited that the New York Giants won the game. He was screaming at the plasma, so when Plexico Burress got the game winning touchdown, he hollered just a little bit louder. Maybe, just maybe, Loren will get on here and post a little something.

Happy Birthday Lynn
So today is Lynn's 33rd birthday! Happy Birthday Lynn! We went out to their farm and she opened her cards and we ate cake. It was a good cake, but I am not much of a chocolate lover and it was covered in chocolate! I don't even think Loren had a slice. Anywho, Loren and I made our first trip as a couple to the mall. We both hate the mall. We just can't stand the busyness of it all. So for the first(and hopefully the last) time in our relationship, we ventured to the mall. We made it quick. We had a mission(get Lynn's gift card) and get the hell out! Of course, that quick trip had to have some type of entertainment.... Lets just say, "mmmmmuuuuuuaaaaaaaawwwwwwwww" If you want to know, ask us. Its pretty hilarious and slightly rude. I feel really happy when I go to Lynn and Dave's because I actually like them. I don't mind going to their house and hanging out. I feel like I am a part of their family! I've never felt that way before! My parents adore Loren. They think its kinda weird that I(their cooky, loud mouthed baby) has found such a great guy. Boy, does he have them fooled!!
The Super Bowl is today. Who gives a shit?! Not me!! Loren is sitting in the rocker with the new kitty(more on that in a sec) watching it. I don't find it entertaining or exciting, but whatever makes him happy, makes me happy.
So yea, the new kitty. Dave and Lynn had a momma cat that got knocked up and popped out some kitties. Long story short, the ma is dead and so are most of the kitties. There are 2 left. Dave was getting pissed at one of them, so I told him a few weeks ago that if he felt the urge to kill them, give them to us and we will find them a good home. Today, he handed over one. So, now we are going potty train him and probably give him to my parents. Our cat, Buddy, hates this little one. The little one seems to hate our dog Bubba. Oh well.
The weekend is officially over. I am not ready for another work week. Thank God both of us have Friday off. Loren is going to apply for a new job at Polar Tank. He is no longer happy at Electro-f-ing-sux, so he is going to shop around for a new job. Good Luck with that Hun!!
Here a couple pictures of the animals. Loren and the kitty relaxing. Buddy sleeping in the flowers by the front door. And Bubba in his new "bedroom"
